I have just purchased a 6500 slide. I put the memory card in but it says it is not formated. How do I format the memory card

to let know that there is nothing wrong with phone something wrong with back cover. if you look at your back cover of where is camera glass there is some iron if you that thing up and also look at your memory card slot on right hand side you will see little brown metal thing push that up as well and the cover back make your phone is truned off.
soon am gona put a video of this on youtube i will leave a link here.

My 6500 slide could not read my memory card!

Hello everyone,
My 6500 slide works fine until now. All of sudden, The phone does not read my 1 GB memory card. It said "No memory card found" when I try to check phone memory. Data storage also not available. Please help!

Take the back of the phone off.
The window in the back, which has the cover for the lens, has a rim around it. Part of this rim is raised up - this is the contact to enable the phone to see the memory card.
What happens over time is that the case on the phone may become compressed and the contact gets flattened down.
What you need to do is slide a thin flat blade scredriver under the raised part, and carefully twist the blade to raise the contact upwards, very slightly (~1mm).
Put the back of the case back on the phone.
Worked fine for me!

how to format nokia 6500 slide ? my nokia 6500 slide cannot open open got sound nokia tones and after nokia logo hand it off by it self got battery ?
can same one help me how 2 format nokia 6500slide ?

It's not possible to format this model yourself. Your only options are "restore factory defaults" but the phone needs to be working to do this.
If you are unable to use it then it needs to go to a nokia care point for repair.

Where is Micro SD Memory Card? Nokia 6500 slide

Hi guys,
I need some help please.
I bought Nokia 6500 slide today and on the box says that it contains:
Nokia 6500 slide
Nokia Battery BP-5M
Nokia Charger AC-4
Nokia Wired Stereo Headset HS-47
Nokia 256 MB Micro SD Memory Card MU-27
Nokia Mirco USB Cable CA-101
Nokia TV-Out Cable CA-92U
CD ROM
User guide
Everything is there except Micro SD Card. Is it somewhere inserted in the phone or it should be in the box? I am confused. I am worried because I don't think they sold me brand new item as I think box was open before they brought it to me.

Hi,
Remove the back cover and you will notice next to the camera lens a silver plate. The memory card should be in there. By holding the phone so that the camera lens is at the top and the battery is facing downwards, you can put ur fingernail carefully at the top of the silver plate where there is an indentation and slide the cover down without removing the battery. You can then remove the memory card once you manage to get the silver plate to pop upright..
Hope this helps.
To insert ur sim card, you need to remover the battery. The sim card compartment is just below the memory card slot. When you need to get the sim card out, use the little metal slider beside the memory card slot to push the sim card out of the slot.
Mojo!

Problem with Contacts for 6500 slide

I recently bought a Nokia 6500 slide and i`m very pleased, except one thing.
I used to have some other phones, and all my contacts were on the memory of that phone (not on the SIM).
For me to have my contacts on the 6500 slide, i had to move all those contacts on the sim, then insert the sim into the 6500 slide and move them again from there to the phone memory (i hate having my contacts on the sim couse i can't add any aditional info).
Ok, so.. after i moved all my contacts to the phone memory, i saw that from about 200 contacts, i only have about 20. At first i thought "ok, there was a problem with the moving process and i lost them all..." I was just about getting over this, when I realized that those numbers that I lost are still in there, but i can't see them.
If I manualy enter a number of a contact that don't show in my Contacts List, when it dials, the number appears on the screen. Same if that contact calls me. I can't see them in the Contact List tho.
It's like there are hidden or something..
I tried changing the settings so that i can see only the contacts in the SIM (in which case, none apear), only in the phone (only those 20 or so appear) or showing both (still, only 20 or so appear).
The contacts are not in the SIM couse i tried putting the sim back in the old phone, and it's empty.
They must be somewhere in the phone. Is there a hidden setting that i can find, that allows me to see those contacts that I thought I lost? It's very annoying to wait till someone calls me so I can add his number again in the phonebook
To be more specific, let me give an example.
Let's say I had contact "John" with the number "12345678". Now I can't see it anymore.
If i dial 12345678 and then hit "Call", it apears like "Calling John"
If John calls me, it apears like "John" on the screen.
If i try to add John to the phone book I get a message like "A name is already entered for that number"
It's like... all the contacts are already there, but I can't see them
Can someone help me please... I`m really desperate

Hello and welcome to the forums;
First, you mention the error references a SIM card, however your profile says you have a Sprint device. A small problem there, and I would like to clear up any confusion as which device you have: a Sprint CDMA device, or one with a SIM card.
Second, have you tried restarting your device? Hold down the power button and move the ringer mute switch next to it back and forth 3 times, then wait 4-5 seconds for the device to restart by itself.
Try this, and let us know what happens.

How does the 6500 slide hard reset?
That's simple.
All you have to do is:
From MENU goto SETTINGS, When there scroll down and select 'Restore Factory Setting'.
There are two options in there:
"Restore Settings only"
and
"Restore all"
Select "Restore All"
When done the phone will delete every thing on the Phone memory(C:\)(contacts,picture,messages etc)
and also restore phone to its original settings and will restart.
This proceedure is mostly common on S40 phone.
Hope this explain and solve the problem.

6500 slide syncro problems

I just got a new 6500 slide and I wanted to synchronize it with my old e61 but it is impossible
it is saying that I should check the connectivity. but everything is alright. the bluetooths are on, they do find each other, but as soon as it starts doing it, it stops...

i have the same problems. i went back with it to orange and it kept it for about a month to repair my keypad. when i got it back the camera key on the side of the phone was not working and the problems started to come. memory card can not be read. the phone tells me i erased the memory card but it is still in the phone. i can;t write a message because of the big delay. but if i take out the memory card it works properly. but i installed the new software and now i have no memory. i can;t even write a reminder and save it. what is there to do?

Nokia 6500 Slide!

Please can tell me how the 6500 slide is?
Ive got a Luna at the mo,and im very happy with it.Only annoying thing is that it has NO memory expansion.So im looking for a replacement.Im thinking about the Slide,but i have seen today one which i could change with my luna,and the camera sucks!The photo quality is whorster then the N73 which i think is almost the same quality as the N95,and the video recording was horrible!!I thought the video recording mode of the Slide would be at 30fps,which would be similar to the N95,but it was the same as the 6300 and Luna for example.So how can this be?I really hoped that the pic quality was same like the N73 and the video recording same like the N95 or a bit less.So i dont know if it is the Slide i looked to which was bad(just 20 days old) or is it just how the Slide's are?If all the slide's are like this i will go for the ugly'er but much more quality baring N82 or the SE k850i.Can someone please answer this??

I never said it was the worst phone on the planet, I simply pointed out that it was not always a trouble-free model (you are lucky, you don't seem to have suffered the issue of the badly-fitting backplate whose metal protrusion didn't always contact with the circuit board switch leading to frequent failure to activate memory card access) and gave my honest opinion of it compared with the other phones that the original poster mentioned.
None of that should detract from your enjoyment of your phone; but the 6500 Slide's build quality (however good it may be) will never compare to the 8600 Luna that the other guy is replacing.

6500 Slide - Max MicroSD Size???

I'm receiving a new 6500 Slide in the next few days, and I'm wondering what memory card to buy.
I know its a MicroSD card, but I've read many contradicting statements on what type (normal or SDHC) it can be used.
I plan to get a 4gb MicroSDHC, but I can't find any support for SDHC anywhere on the 6500 Slide tech specs (but it says support for 4gb), and some reviews I've read say it doesn't support SDHC, but some do.
Can anyone tell me if I can buy a MicroSDHC card and use it without problems?
Message Edited by davito92 on 21-May-2008 12:20 PM

OK, What I said last is somewhat true!
The phone cannot tell you the size/used/free but it will read over 4gb. i have 6GB of music on my 8gb and it can read it all as far as i can tell, i went through the entire card (170 folders of music) and calculated the total (6000mb+) on my pc. although this slows media player down ALOT

6500 slide - how to have the message tone silent b...

So frustrating.
I've tried all teh profiles and carefully made sure that the message tone is off, and then what do you know - beep beep !
I work in an open plan office and this is not a good thing to have happen.
Never had this problem with any phone before.
Reading on here - I think it may be a software problem and I just need to connect and update it ?
Can anyone confirm that they have had the same problem and it was fixed like this ?
Thanks !

further to my earlier posts I have now been advised by my providers technical department (and I must say very pleased that someone actually spoke sense to me and was very helpful, thanks "3" Repairs) that the problem is a "known issue" with the 6500 slide. Apparently some pin on the back is meant to touch something on the phone memory like a reset button, but often it does not, so any profile changes you make are forgotten and it resets to default. So why have Nokia not resolved this?? All very annoying when your siting in a meeting thinking phone on silent, then suddenly, all singing and dancing!!!!!!

6500 SLIDER UNABLE TO TRANSFER PHONEBOOK

I WAS HAVING N70 AND I COPIED ALL MY CONTACTS IN MY LAPTOP BUT NOW AFER PURCHASING 6500 SLIDER I AM UNABLE TO TRANSFER MY PHONE BOOK TO 6500 SLIDER KINDLY HELP!!!!

By what method do you transfer the phone book in laptop?
These two most of the time works; by doing a one-way synch(phonebook of old phone) to outlook, making the phone dominant in resolving conflict. Then doing the reversed(in new phone) making outlook dominant in resolving conflict.
The other way is just doing a backup & restore with latest pcsuites that supports both phones. Not only phonebook is restore but almost all items in memory of old.
Check which one suits you!

Software issue with nokia 6500 slide handsets

Hi All
I have 2 nokia 6500 slide handsets that seem to have the same issue that driving me mad..
It seems no matter how many times i set a ringtone and screen saver, the phone reverts back to the standard nokia ringtone and a blank screensaver???
I have phoned my network provider who dont seem to be of any help at all and just keep advising me that i should try upgrading the software via the pc suite which ive done several times with no fix!
Im thinking this must be a fault with this handsets/ software as both my phones are doin it and also 3 of my friends phones also are doin the same thing!
Does anyone know why this keeps happening as im really getting fedup with having to reset my ringtone/ screen saver all the time..
Thanxs rich
